| Obverse lettering | ALFONSVS REX CASTELLE ET LEGIONIS (Translation: Alfonso King of Castile and Leon) |
| Reverse description | The reverse displays a stylised fleur-de-lis motif as the central device, rendered in the bold, angular manner typical of mid-13th-century Castilian hammered coinage. The fleur-de-lis is set within the field, its three lobes clearly articulated despite the worn and irregular surface of the billon flan. A surrounding legend referencing the royal title or kingdom may appear partially along the periphery, though it is largely obscured by the coin's irregular striking and wear. The overall composition is characteristic of the emergency dineros struck during the First Granada War (1264–1268). The flan edges are irregular and clipped, consistent with the hasty production methods employed during this wartime issue. |
